"This book could easily become the "go to" text for standardized
patient utilization and the backbone for implementation strategies
in learning programs...It is a must-have for all disciplines
interested in adding the human simulation experience to their
programs."--Nursing Education Perspectives
"Today there is an explosion in the use of simulation in nursing
and health professions education. The contributors to this text are
experts in this format of teaching. They are the designers of the
learning spaces, the authors of simulation cases and evaluation
methods, the experts who program the human patient simulators and
who teach the patient actors to enact the clinical scenarios I
consider this a "handbook" on the design, evaluation and practice
of simulation for clinical education. If you are a faculty member
with concerns about how your students will make the transition from
student to professional, use simulation in your curriculum and
learn for yourself that pretending is simulation for life but
simulation is pretending for the delivery of exquisite clinical
care."

Human simulation is changing the face of clinical education in
the health professions. Its use has expanded beyond medical school
to encompass nursing and mental health clinical education. This
comprehensive guide to establishing and managing a human simulation
lab has been written by nationally acclaimed simulation experts and
is geared for undergraduate, graduate, and professional
settings.
The text takes the reader step-by-step through the process of
planning, organizing, implementing, and maintaining a simulation
lab. It describes the required technology, how to train
standardized patients, how to implement a simulation, evaluation
and analysis of the simulation experience, and how to develop a
business plan. The guide details simulation in undergraduate and
graduate nursing programs, physician's assistant programs, and
mental health education, as well as the use of simulation with
critically ill patients, and in perioperative, perianasthesia,
women's health, and rehabilitation science settings. Key
Features:
Offers a blueprint for developing, implementing, and managing a
human simulation lab Details use of simulation in numerous nursing
and mental health settings along with case studies Provides tools
for evaluation and analysis of the simulation experience Presents
undergraduate and graduate nursing simulation scenarios and
pedagogical strategies Discusses simulation training and required
technology Includes templates for writing cases for BSN and MSN
levels
